Correction: I say the half back stitch is good for under stitching your interfacing so it doesn't roll out from under your garment. What I meant to say was it's good for under stitching your FACINGS not interfacing. And I said it wrong twice - sorry about any confusion.

@TheDailySew6 жыл бұрын
I would use a backstitch to sew any seam that is under strain; underarm seam, crotch seam, maybe center back, and putting in a zipper (prick stitch for zips). For other seams, especially where the garment is loose you can use a running stitch, just make your stitches small, like 1/8 of an inch. If the fabric is loosely woven you may want to use two rows of stitches- one running or backstitch and the other an overcast or whip stitch going over the seam allowances.

@TheDailySew5 жыл бұрын
How do you do a gather stitch? When you want to gather a long piece of fabric together so it isn't as long (like a ruffle or flounce) you will stitch two rows of basting stitches along the edge you want to gather. Do not knot the thread and leave a long tail when you start and end the rows. One row is stitched inside the seam allowance (say 3/8" in from the edge) and a second row is stitched either on the seam line or just outside the seam line (like 5/8" in from the edge). Both rows are parallel to the long edge of the fabric - the edge you want to gather. After stitching the two rows of basting stitches pull on the thread tails to gather up the fabric. Gather up the fabric until it is the length you want it to be. If you're attaching this to another piece of fabric go ahead and pin it in place and then sew it down / together using a running stitch. After it's sewn down you can remove the basting stitches. If that's unclear, or if I misunderstood the question please let me know. Thanks for watching the video.

I would use a running stitch for most, if not all, the seams in a skirt. And for seams that might be under extra strain (pockets?) use a backstitch.

The last bit, when the stuffing is all in and you just need to close it needs a slip stitch (I got a video for that too ;-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIrFhYyjo6Z3ba8 If you're repairing a stuff animal you could either put a patch on the animal with a whip or running or blanket stitch.

What needle do you recommend for putting on patches on Jean jackets?
@TheDailySew5 жыл бұрын
If you mean an embroidered patch with that thick backing, you'll first want to get a good thimble and maybe a small pair of pliers to help push (and tug) the needle through the fabric. That stuff is thick. If it's a flexible embroidered patch or a plain cloth patch a thimble will still be nice but you may be able to get by without one. For needle, you want a thin, sharp needle. A thinner needle will go through thick fabric easier but it has to also be thick enough to not get bent while you sew through thick fabrics. There's the hitch. Try a Sharp (the name of the type of needle) or a Quilting needle. Try a size nine or eight (the smaller needles have larger numbers) if you have large fingers you may need a bigger needle just to hold it comfortably. Buy a pack of size 3/9 Sharps (it carries sizes 3 through 9) and try them all if you have to in order to find one you like - but I recommend starting with the size nine, the smallest in the pack. Tips: you can use fabric glue to hold the patch in place while you stitch it down. (Note that fabric glue may claim to be permanent but it never seems to be.) You a single strand of thread, not doubled, and if the patch has a thick edge of stitching you can match the thread to that stitching and have your stitches cross over that border. Hope this helps and thanks for watching the video.

@TheDailySew2 жыл бұрын
Well, I think it depends on what you're sewing. You're right about basting, always use a single thread and I would say the same with hems because you don't want to see hem stitches. I use a single thread almost always and I'll use a backstitch when the seam needs reinforcement. I do use a double thread for buttons unless I'm using heavy duty thread. But go with what you're comfortable with (except on basting and hems ;-)

How to keep the short end of thread from coming out the needle while sewing?
@TheDailySew5 жыл бұрын
This just takes practice. Maybe start with not pulling your needle too tightly/swiftly when exiting the fabric. I think my pinky finger sort of holds that thread tail when I exit the stitch but it's such a habit with my hands now that I'm not sure. The obvious thing is to make the tail not too short. And move the needle so the tail is never caught in the stitches. You end up with 3 inches of waste after you tie the final knot. When I sew down to the last inch of thread I have a hard time, if not impossible, knotting it.
@lancelink884 жыл бұрын
Why do some show the cotton thread through the needle and doubled down but you only have a single thread?
@TheDailySew4 жыл бұрын
You really need only a single strand of thread to sew any seam. I sometimes double my thread to sew on buttons but I could use a single strand of a heavier thread. I think some folks double their thread because they never learned how to keep a single strand in the eye of the needle as they sew. You want to sew with a single strand because thread has a nap to it - a direction. When the thread is doubled it's folded back upon itself so one half is going through the fabric in the direction of its nap and the other half is going against its nap. Each time the thread passes through the fabric against the nap the little fibers on it are pushed up and away from the thread. This causes friction, tangles, fiber shed, and weakens the thread. So, you just want to practice sewing with one strand. It may be hard at first to not accidentally unthread your needle but you'll get the hang of it pretty soon.

@TheDailySew5 жыл бұрын
Goose Central I would use the running stitch for most of it. For the seams which are under more strain I would use a backstitch. For example if the dress is very fitted around the hips I would at least in the area of your hips, use a backstitch. This is because when you sit your body needs extra fabric to accommodate the backside. Therefore more strain on any seams in the area. Also under the arms, for a couple inches in any direction (back to front and/or down a side or sleeve seam) use a backstitch. Agin for added strength. Please check out the updated video on hand stitches. The link is in this video’s description. It’s clearer and hopefully show the stitches better. Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy sewing your dress. Oh, use a prick stitch to put in a zipper if you have one.

Keeping the thread in the eye of the needle as you sew comes with experience. All my beginning students have trouble keeping the needle threaded as they sew but it doesn't take long to get the knack of it. As you pull the needle out of the fabric hold it at the eye so that you are holding the thread which will keep it in the eye as you pull. Also, try keeping the length of the thread tail (the loose end of the thread) to about a third of the total length of the thread you have loose (by which I mean the thread that is not yet made into stitches) until you can't any longer.

How do I go about making a collar on a caot smaller.
@TheDailySew6 жыл бұрын
You could take it to a tailor or seamstress who does alterations. But I'll try to explain a quick option. I'm assuming you're doing this with hand stitches since this is a video about hand stitching. Start by taking apart the front and back collar pieces with a seam ripper (the top of the collar and the underside of the collar). You can leave the collar on the coat. Press the pieces flat then draw on one of the pieces, in chalk, the shape you want. Cut both layers of the collar together a 1/4" away from the line. So the collar you cut is 1/4" larger on the outside edges then you drew. Fold, toward the inside of the collar, that 1/4" on all the raw edges, on both pieces. Pin the pieces together, sandwiching in the folded over raw edges. Sew the collar shut with a running stitch to look like topstitching. Or if it's a thick coat a small slip stitch sewn at the seam where the 2 collar pieces meet. You can see the slip stitch here kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnSXpGuwnt17pas

I hope it does help and I have newer (read: better lighting) hand stitches videos. The new videos cover more stitches so when you've mastered these ;-)... kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHKcpmd8Z5yfbpI

What do you call the round thing ?
@TheDailySew6 жыл бұрын
That is an embroidery hoop. They come in all sizes and also in plastic. They hold the fabric taut which you don't need to do sewing seams. I wanted it taut to show the stitches better. They could be handy when darning I suppose, and many quilters use the large hoops when hand quilting.

Why aren't you showing us how to finish a stich at the end of the tread? I don't think the stich will hold very long if I just cut the tread off at the end like you do. Now I still need to watch another basic sewing video before I can start.

Yes, good point that's why I redid this video. It shows the knots for beginning and ending your sewing. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHKcpmd8Z5yfbpI

Titles are overlapping the demonstration.

oh, I'm sorry about that. Can you turn off the subtititles? I also redid this video and it might demonstrate the stitches better. Here's the link for that kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHKcpmd8Z5yfbpI

Did you actually spend 5 mins showing how to thread a needle in a video that's supposed to be showing a few different stitches... Im pretty sure EVERYBODY who's searched and watched this video has threaded a few needles in their life time...
